Least Bad Altadis?

[jaymz]

Thanks for all the good suggestions on this, I sat down and read the fine print a little better. Apparently, it's not just Altadis I'm restricted to - it's only the following four brands
Romeo Y Julieta
H. Upmann
Trinidad
Montecristo

Since Trinidad and H. Upmann just released new cigars, I might go with one of them.

Those aren't bad. Romeo y Julieta Aniversario and Reserva Real are pretty good, and you could do worse than Trinidads. The H. Upmann Reserve Maduro and Vintage Cameroon are pretty nice. Montecristo has yet to make a good cigar though.

How about the Trinidad Habana Reserve's? anyone have a recommendation on those?

This might be your chance to try them. I don't know of anyone who has. They've barely just begun to trickle into B&Ms in these parts, but Trinidads sell like urinal cakes around here. My B&M has boxes of original release, just taking up shelf space.
